Foreign Languages

Welcome

Welcome to the Department of Languages and Cultures, where we give students the keys to unlocking different cultures throughout the world. Educating global citizens, we give students the most important tools they need to transcend their own boundaries and explore the world in the 21stcentury so they can experience life more fully by forging meaningful relationships and exchanges with others throughout the world.

The faculty of the department are diverse and highly-educated representatives from Austria, China, Colombia, Germany, Japan, Laos, Paraguay, Russia, Spain, the United States, Ukraine and Venezuela. To maximize our students’ success, the department offers free tutoring and the opportunity to interact with international students from the countries where our languages are spoken.

Once our students graduate with a BA, a BS or a minor in a language, they go on to graduate school, become teachers, professors, translators, do international internships, work for multinational companies, become nurses, optometrists, doctor and lawyers, start import companies, work in government agencies and in law enforcement, find jobs abroad, join the Peace Corps… our students change the world every day.
